Hate this X-mas song...or secretly like it?

This song drives me crazy, but not for reasons most people would list: On the one hand, it is, indeed, about the dumbest Christmas song in history, especially considering it was penned by a guy who wrote - IMHO - some of the greatest songs of the 20th century. But like a sugar fix or a shot of booze, sometimes I give in.

I actually hate all Christmas music. There, I said it. I feel lighter with that off my chest.

BTW, I'm no scrooge. I love Christmas, just not the music. The only exception might be Greensleeves.

In fact I need to remember how to play that. I forget every year and then relearn it.

I love most Christmas music. Especially TSO's versions. Got tickets to see them next week in St. Louis.

 

BTW, for the Paul McCartney song. It doesn't bother me, but I don't go out of my way to listen to it.

 

Ok, I just noticed this is my post #2112. Being an avid RUSH Fan, this makes me feel all giddy inside, LOL. Finally reached another milestone.

Not a bad song, but I can't stand the Keyboard Sound. All that Auto Wah and Delay is a little annoying. Although I'd listen to the original all day long before I'd sit through this one once.......

I hate Christmas music, Surfpup you aren't alone.

 

Firstmeasure, what are you talking about? The tone on that guitar is to die for! Three cats died from hearing it [flapper]

I wonder if its a bad thing that I can no longer hear my amp whilst playing after those 13 seconds..... :-k:-k

This one's better than either of the above.

But it still sucks.

Same here 100%. Don't know why but all Christmas songs annoy me.

 

This song is slightly irritating but I don't hate it.
